    Re: What book are you reading these days?

    I have started on Common Poisonous Plants and Mushrooms of North America.



    In hindsight, I should have read this book before I started hiking in North America.

    Re: What book are you reading these days?

    Just finished The Gathering Storm, #12 of Wheel of Time. It's back to the good stuff, folks. The only downside is that in order to understand where things are now, you have to wade through the previous 4 or 5 books where the author got all obsessive about tiny details and spent unreasonable amounts of time writing about not very much.
    I use VB 6, VB.Net 2003 and Office 2010



    Code:
    Excel Graphing | Excel Timer | Excel Tips and Tricks | Add controls in Office | Data tables in Excel | Gaussian random number distribution (VB6/VBA,VB.Net) | Coordinates, Vectors and 3D volumes

    The Origin Of Species (I'm reading it slowly because it's destroying my belief in organised religion).

    Re: What book are you reading these days?

    Next by Michael Crichton.
    The Gathering Storm from the wheel of time series should be out in PB next month. An interesting thing about this (originally 12 book) series is the author, Robert Jordan died before he finished the last book. Bummer. His wife and friend will finish the series with his notes and it will be three books (14 now).
